As the hand played out, I put him on JJ and thought I could get him to lay it down. Silly me.

21 outs on the turn. Sick.

if he won't lay down 5's in that spot no way he drops Jacks. I like your play there, but not against this guy - need to adjust your notes here more towards

His numbers led me to believe he was a better player than he ended up being. By the end of the session, I realized he was WAY more of a calling station than I thought.

This was either a really great or really lousy call... At the time, I wasn't sure. But after watching him for a while longer, I realized it was almost certainly the latter.
